# Restore Converted Leads for Salesforce

Revert leads to their original status, even if they were converted prematurely. Avoid unwanted accounts, contacts, and opportunities created when leads convert too early.

1. Ensure the leads are backed up prior to conversion.
2. Back up data after conversions.
3. Delete the Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities created by the lead conversion.
4. Delete Converted Leads using the Mass Delete Option. (Filter on Converted equals True).
5. Empty the Salesforce Recycle Bin.
6. Force another Backup of your Salesforce Org.
7. Restore Lead records from the backup created prior to conversion.
